What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Western Equine Encephalitis VaccineBiological

    Subject will be vaccinated with 0.5 mL of reconstituted WEE vaccine, inactivated, TSI-GSD 210 (Lot 3-1-92) subcutaneously in the upper outer aspect of the deltoid region.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
VaccinatedExperimentalWestern Equine Encephalitis Vaccine, Inactivated, TSI-GSD 210, Lot 3-1-92, administered in 0.5 mL doses subcutaneously in the upper outer aspect of the triceps in a 3-dose primary series (Days 0, 7, and 28) with a mandatory boost (Day 180)
Receives: Biological: Western Equine Encephalitis Vaccine

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Subjects Reporting Adverse Events by Vaccination and Sex

    Measured: 28 days following each vaccination

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Immunogenicity

    The primary endpoint used to measure immunogeniciyt of the WEE vaccine, the 80% plaque-reduction neautralization titer (PRNT 80), will be evaluated for subjects in the per protocol population.

    The secondary endpoint will be GMT, with 95% CI, of the PRNT 80 for WEE-specific antibodies at each scheduled timepoint.

    Measured: Baseline and multiple dates throughout study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Western Equine Encephalitis Vaccine in people with Virus, run by U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Subjects Reporting Adverse Events by Vaccination and Sex (time frame: 28 days following each vaccination). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01159561, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Apr 2019.
